commit 3220022038 upstream.
clang-15's ability to elide loops completely became more aggressive when
it can deduce how a variable is being updated in a loop. Counting down
one variable by an increment of another can be replaced by a modulo
operation.
For 64b variables on 32b ARM EABI targets, this can result in the
compiler generating calls to __aeabi_uldivmod, which it does for a do
while loop in float64_rem().
For the kernel, we'd generally prefer that developers not open code 64b
division via binary / operators and instead use the more explicit
helpers from div64.h. On arm-linux-gnuabi targets, failure to do so can
result in linkage failures due to undefined references to
__aeabi_uldivmod().
While developers can avoid open coding divisions on 64b variables, the
compiler doesn't know that the Linux kernel has a partial implementation
of a compiler runtime (--rtlib) to enforce this convention.
It's also undecidable for the compiler whether the code in question
would be faster to execute the loop vs elide it and do the 64b division.
While I actively avoid using the internal -mllvm command line flags, I
think we get better code than using barrier() here, which will force
reloads+spills in the loop for all toolchains.
